Burning rubber and rotting cannabis on me :(

Well this was a big disappointment. I love tobacco, whiskey, etc scents and I thought this was a safe blind buy. On opening the bottle it was hard to judge the scent due to the strong alcohol smell but at that point I mainly got a sharp terpenes sort of smell like in L’Orpheline (which is not my thing, but it could turn out nice so I wasn’t put off yet).
Unfortunately, the moment it hit my skin, all I could smell was something almost like burning rubber at first, and then a rotting, earthy smell that resembled one of the more stinky kinds of cannabis (and I can appreciate a cannabis smell, but this ain’t it). It wasn’t sweet on me at all, and I didn’t get tobacco, and only a hint of something whiskey-like. It just smelled bad.

Luckily it’s not very strong so even after using it on my face I didn’t have to put up with the smell for long. I did also put some on my wrist and after a couple of hours, I discovered that it had dried down to something more pleasant - a rather old fashioned (to my nose) masculine woody/earthy scent, maybe a bit tobacco-ish, but I couldn’t really tell you what it smelled like tbh. It was mediocrely pleasant.

This stuff made my face feel great, but it smells so bad on me that I don’t think I can even bring myself to use it as a skin toner/aftershave. At least it was cheap!

A "new" PInaud was (finally) purchased & tested

I don't want to write long novels about this Pinaud. I'm sure a short essay will do.

Pinaud - the name says it all. For some time now, shaving men have been associated with euphony and "feeling good" after shaving. He's been on my shaving schedule for at least decades. And here as "must have"! Because this fragrance with the beautiful name "Whiskey Woods" is an aftershave or mother tongue correct aftershave.
By the way, I bought both relatively new Pinauds for myself. So also the Brandy Spice. Since the announcement in the subscribed newsletter of Clubman/Pinaud both AS were on my wish list. To order this in the USA nevertheless quite inexpensive AS is not worthwhile simply any more nowadays. The postage, the often long transport time and if possible still the tiresome way to the customs office - I prefer to leave that.

Here in the country with a shave dealer ordered, costs per bottle around 13€ for at least 177ml content! They are delivered in the now obligatory slightly square plastic bottle - I am allowed to write. That's how almost all Pinauds are packaged. It is also practical, not only for the transport route. In the course of time I have already knocked over flacons, sometimes slipped a bit or during other actions in the bathroom like tidying up: "bums" landed with a bang the flacon on the tiles to damage them or even burst them themselves. So also when falling into the sink, how fast is the good ceramic glaze there and "mistress" gives me another solid "after shave"... the beautiful bottle breaks, oh somebody - that can't happen with the Pinaud bottles. In addition, they are handy and lightweight, as they can be held in the hand as a bulk bottle.
So if you value beautiful flacons, you're wrong here. It's all about practicing.
I like the scent of Whiskey Woods more than Brandy Spice. The latter actually has a typical brandy smell in my nose for a long time. With "Whiskey Woods" I feel the scent more sweet and harmonious. Ehr with light sweetness and spicy round. Yes, a light, very soft whiskey note is to be guessed but Woods? I think it refers here to the years of maturation of real whiskey in wooden barrels. At least I didn't smell any wood. Also the otherwise always very entertaining durability of the Pinauds appeared to me longer with Whiskey Woods. But that's no way to win a race. After 2 hours only perceptible by direct sniffing on the skin. I hope that both, as usual with Pinaud, have an excellent care property without shaving fire and certainly do not need to be mentioned.

Conclusion: The clear favourite for me is "Whiskey Woods". In the future it will have a regular place in my Pinaud collection. Please, gentlemen! Don't let that deter you from buying the other scent. This judgment, my "judgment", is purely subjective. Everyone feels scents differently! Fragrances behave differently on every skin. Those of you who prefer a good brandy are well served with "Brandy/Spice". The easiest thing in my eyes is: Buy both - you can't do anything wrong.

Until the next Pinaud. -.)
